Abstract
Disclosed are robotic systems, methods, bipedal robot devices, and computer-readable mediums. For example, a robotic system may include a robotic body, a robotic hip connected to the robotic body, a robotic leg connected to the robotic hip. Further, the robotic system may include a first robotic foot that is connected to one end of the robotic leg and a second robotic foot is connected to an opposite end of the robotic leg. Yet further, the robotic leg may be fully rotatable around an axis of rotation defined by the robotic hip. In addition, the robotic hip may be linearly movable along the robotic leg to one or more positions between the one end of the robotic leg and the opposite end of the robotic leg.
